Greetings and Salutations

Howdy -
My name is legofreak, and I am now hooked on the whole Warhammer 40K genre.
It started about a year ago when a buddy of mine asked me if I would be willing to make some Warhammer Wizardsfor him as he was into the original tabletop game. (I'd played a little DnD in my younger years, but had never heard of WH until this time).
Well, shortly after that I found a few books from the Black Library at a used bookstore, including Trollslayer.
And needless to say it's a far more interesting world than any other I'd encountered.
A few more months went by, and I started amassing more and more books, and began work on more figsfor myself.
Then one fateful day at Barnes and Nobles I found the Ultramarines Omnibus.....
and that was it man! I'd been a huge fan of Starcraft, and Space marines in general, but the whole WH40k?! - Wow! I now grab as many books on the Adeptus Astartes as I can find (and I really really want one of those posters that shows the top hundred chapters ah well, as soon as my budget stretches a bit.)
Fantastic stuff - As I am sure you are all aware.

Well, after going through some personal issues, and some ups and downs in life, I am glad to say that I finally got a decent computer that could play DOW (I waited for the Gold edition as I am a cheap bas****) and my obsession is now in full bloom once more.

The first modding I did was to create a bunch of badges and banners for lego factions - although I can see I am going to have to redo all the banners now that I see some of the great stuff around here!

Currently I am at work on making Lego minifigs with custom Space Marine armor (I have already made a chainsword and a bolter for my prototype fig) and I'll be sure to post a link here when I have one ready for show.

At any rate, sorry to be so long winded, but there are very few forums that I choose to participate in, and honestly the others are lego related.. but heck - this modding stuff is fun. SO be prepared for some obvious questions (I'll try to keep those to a minimum) and some wild enthusiasm (I don't do things by halves!)

Warhammer Wizards? Interesting. I remember when I first got in to Warhammer trying to have additional units made from all of the lego men we owned! Never went quite as far as the torso stickers though

Hopefully we can help with any problems you might have. If it's something short and simple with a simple answer that other people might wonder about (but just haven't asked) then I may even add it to the FAQ.

Enjoy your stay.

Brilliant! I love the Lego Lichemaster

I'm sure there's a Playmobil site like this out there somewhere too....

Kemmler? Didn't look at them in detail before, but yeah, the face in it is great The Gotrek one looks quite excessively tattooed!
